In a retrofuturistic world, a huckster named Jack Billings runs a small business of traveling salesmen who go door to door (on Earth) selling timeshares on the moon. Jack pays his staff with the payments, pockets the rest, and then moves on from town to town, with the fictional rocket launch for his customers to be brought to their fictional new homes being delayed further and further.
In one of the towns Jack realizes he's found his son Joey, who doesn't know that Jack is his father. Jack hires Joey as a salesperson, decides to stay in this town for a while, and tries to find a way to tell Joey that they are father and son without driving him away, while also trying to keep the fraudulent business from crashing down around him.
